Publisher Description

What if a fascinating stranger knew you better than you know yourself? When her husband comes home with a farfetched story about eating dinner with someone he believes to be Jesus, Mattie Cominsky thinks this may signal the end of her shaky marriage. Convinced that Nick is, at best, turning into a religious nut, the self-described agnostic hopes that a quick business trip will give her time to think things through. On board the plane, Mattie strikes up a conversation with a fellow passenger. When she discovers their shared scorn for religion, she confides her frustration over her husband’s recent conversion. The stranger suggests that perhaps her husband isn’t seeking religion but true spiritual connection, an idea that prompts her to reflect on her own search for fulfillment. As their conversation turns to issues of spiritual longing and deeper questions about the nature of God, Mattie finds herself increasingly drawn to this insightful stranger. But when the discussion unexpectedly turns personal, touching on things she’s never told anyone, Mattie is startled and disturbed. Who is this man who seems to peer straight into her soul?

"I liked this one a little better than the Dinner With a Perfect Stranger. In this one, Mattie, Nick's wife, meets a stranger in the seat next to her, on the plane. Neither have much use for "religion" per se; but there's something about this guy that is awfully compelling..."

    " I enjoyed this book and will probably read more by this author. The story makes you think about those around you and what would you take away from spending the day with Jesus. Wish we all could have that chance! "

    " it there was another star or two I would give it a 6 or 7. AMAZING! Even though I figured the people out after a few pages I LOVED every page. Now I have to read the Dinner one. "

    " I was excited to read the follow up ...and knew it was a 30 minute read outside on a beautiful spring day. Its good but not as good as the first one. I'm not sure if I would even recommend...He did have a beautiful illustration of how much God loves us.. "

    " This is the follow-up with Nick's wife Mattie. She is quite frustrated with her marriage and looking to God for answers was not on her list of ways to resolve it. It is not a big book but is a fast read and gives a person a few things to ponder. "

    " Simple christian book about a troubled woman conversing with a stranger and being challenged to consider that God is what provides true fulfillment in life. The song "What if God was one of us...just a stranger on the bus" kept playing in my head as I read :-) "

    " This was a great book to read right after the bleak and depressing one I recently finished. I much prefer a book full of hope and promise, uplifting and enlightening, and this was it! It's all about God's love for us, and what could be better than that? "
